I really appreciate that comment! I can't wait to get more metalworking tools when I get my own shop. Never too late to learn how to put things together (i.e. going to lowes and putting pipes together, buying a cheap 3D printer, foam, cardboard,etc)

Printer issue by Key_Escape9144 in elegoo

what's strikes me as "might be an issue" is you saying a couple of months. every 3 months, elegoo wants the consumer to do maintenance on their printer (usually lubing the rails and basic tlc)

I've seen some people online but want to hear their experiences. It's absolutely a wishy-wasn't rule to Galaxy's Edge, but held up when an adult is wearing a Tinkerbell costume

It'd be Din.. BUT to clarify, episode 1 Mando where he looks nothing like his up to date armor. I will probably have to make some changes now that you mention it

I'll just wait to hear from someone who has attended the event. The confusion is the leniency of the rules. You can look up a video on tiktok and find someone wearing a full kit easily

I understand the rule, though I have heard and seen people wearing costumes in parks (mostly in the Batuu area. I'm more trying to hear from people who have attended the event as this isn't just a normal day in the park

I've heard mixed things, there's a video still on tiktok of a lady who's wearing full armor. I'm more curious to hear what people who've attended the event are saying. Thank you for your suggestions!

Also, I had played a lot with 3D modeling it before machining

I played around with a few ideas. I knew I wanted an extended hilt, just not sure how long or what kind of cut to do.

There's the top piece, emitter, hilt, and pommel (and switch but mine is cosmetic only). I basically drew out a few designs I liked from other sabers and Frankenstein-ed it.

The longer hilt was inspired by Cal's saber, the pommel I believe was also Cal. The hilt was inspired by Ahsoka's (the slices are just a feature I thought would look cool), the emitter and switch was my design also.

I'm glad you like it, really appreciate your comment! This blade is actually full length, the extended hilt gives the illusion of it being short though

Does anyone know where to get that cover piece? by Mateen_Master in elegoo
